Favorite Eyeshadows

Curious to see what are some of your favorite eyeshadow brands, colors, palettes, specific palettes?

My friend had an old sugarpill palette she put on me for fun. I went to one of the "bars" in Louisville that night and it was a lot of fun.
I wanted a bright palette of my own to possibly learn on.. so I just ordered one off Juvia's Place. The Zulu Palette.
I'm a man, btw.
The Zulu palette was highly rated and only 20bucks. The same palette at SugarPill would be more than 60.

I actually grabbed a few dollar store LA COLORS palettes and goofed with them and I was kind of surprised how good they were. But I know less to nothing so... Anyone else ever use the LA COLORS eye shadows?

I should probably learn how to use neutrals first to learn technique before I jump into all these colors. But I do what I want.

I kind of went crazy with the Labor Day sales at KylieCosmetics, SugarPill, and JeffreeStarCosmetics. Palettes and lips. Yes, now I'm adding lips to my ManGlam.

And you're right about blending. I have problems blending some of the higher-end stuff but now I use a primer and that helps a lot. Another issue is staining. Reds and Purples especially can stain your eye and it takes days to get that color off.

So I have two 14 dollar palettes from Amazon one is all neutrals and one is all colors. I also have Kylie's Extended Bronze Palette and Jeffree Star's Thirsty Palette. I love them both.

BUT I can open any palette and get so lost. Every tutorial has a different way of application. I can't pick the first transition shade to save my life. Some people start with darker colors and lighten down.. some use a base and the next lightest as the transition and build up. It's a crazy world.. this makeup gig.
